Abstract As the main loading‐bearing tissue of eye, sclera exerts an important role in the pathophysiology of glaucoma. Intraocular pressure (IOP) generates mechanical strain on sclera. Recent studies have demonstrated that sclera, especially the peripapillary sclera, undergoes complicated remodelling under the mechanical strain.

Selected autoantibodies and normal-tension glaucoma [PDF]
Although intraocular pressure is an important risk factor in glaucoma, there is growing body evidence indicating an immunological component in the pathogenesis of normal-tension glaucoma (NTG). The aim of this study was to determine if NTG coexists with elevated levels of autoantibodies detected in rheumatic diseases.We enrolled 105 patients into the ...

Abstract Purpose To analyse optical coherence tomography (OCT)‐derived inner nuclear layer (INL) and outer retinal complex (ORC) measurements relative to ganglion cell‐inner plexiform layer (GCIPL) measurements in glaucoma. Methods Glaucoma participants (n = 271) were categorised by 10‐2 visual field defect type.

Senile depression (SD) is a heterogeneous syndrome. Several clinical profiles are more likely to appear in SD than in early‐life depression, but it remains unclear whether the pathophysiology is different. The prevalence of dementia increases with aging, and the underlying pathophysiological processes in the preclinical phase begin even before ...

Genetic association of ANGPT2 with primary open-angle glaucoma
Background To determine the association of the ANGPT2 gene with primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG) in Chinese. Methods Six single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in ANGPT2 (rs2515487, rs2922869, rs13255574, rs4455855, rs13269021, and rs11775442) were ...

Familial thrombophilia and normal tension glaucoma [PDF]
Editor,—The aetiology of normal tension glaucoma (NTG) is still debatable. Abnormal blood flow, systemic hypotension, abnormal blood coagulability, and other factors associated with cerebrovascular disease may have a causative role in NTG.A study was designed to look at the prevalence of familial thrombophilia in cases of NTG. ### CASE REPORT Seventy

Normal tension glaucoma---a practical approach [PDF]
Normal tension glaucoma (NTG) remains a difficult diagnosis for the ophthalmologist who favours the argument that raised intraocular pressure (IOP) is essential for the diagnosis of primary open angle glaucoma (POAG). The concept of NTG challenges us to distinguish between pressure dependent and pressure independent causal factors.
